I think this would rely on the XWayland port to sailfishos (which you can follow here), unless someone has ported wine to wayland proper by now?

Wine would be a very visible justification for having a tablet running real Linux. Youtube videos of MS Word running on it would generate lots of interest. Sounds like a long-term goal though technically.

BTW, @javispedro succeeded in running XWayland on the Jolla a while ago. :)

Well, im talking about the tablet - sorry about the confusion.

Then you will probably have to wait for either wine to be ported on wayland or Xwayland support. Or a VM that will work with wayland and you can emulate win on it.
